No, not about Russian collusion, silly, but why the president wears such long ties.
For some reason, Trump likes to wear his ties down to his fly. The bizarre sartorial choice has inspired both Twitter parody pages and speculation among experts as to the reasoning.

In 2016, Trump reminded him about his theory that a longer tie would make him look thinner.
Fashion experts don’t agree. GQ said a man’s tie should fall no further than the middle of his waistband or his belt.
London-based tailor Jack Stammers thinks the president’s tie theory is backfiring.

There is a growing understanding across the Western allies that Ukraine is losing the ground war against Russia, and by summer could face defeat. Russia is pounding front lines with artillery, rocket and drone fire — and at over five times the rate the Ukrainian army can reply. Volodymyr Zelensky’s troops are exhausted — after sustaining in some sectors a heavier concentration of incoming artillery than at the Somme in 1916, or the Normandy Bocage after D-Day in 1944.
